have you tried the cress Trev Yep George, I recall Trevor saying that he had given them cress in the past. This is a bit of an improvement on that idea. Carrots have lots of carotine, ( vitamin A), celery provides B group vitamins and vitamin C and potassium etc. Fresh vegetables of different types...

the problem i have with veg is were they come from if i was growing my own yes but not from the shops cress is different it has nothing sprayed on it I do agree George but being involved in farming I also know that the general public can be easily put off almost anything by the rubbish that the med...

have you tried the cress Trev I have tried cress George and the birds didn't touch it, funny thing is that the chickens didn't either and they usually eat anything lol.

Hopefully it will pick itself up in a day or two mate

I have to say I'm not convinced the birds are liking it much 🤔 they are drinking it when they have too but if there is any other water available no matter how dirty it might be they head straight for that instead !!!
